1 To the chief Musician 5329 for the sons 1121 of Korah 7141, Maschil 4905. We have heard 8085 with our ears 241, O God 430, our fathers 1 have told 5608 us, what work 6467 thou didst 6466 in their days 3117, in the times 3117 of old 6924.
2 How thou didst drive out 3423 the heathen 1471 with thy hand 3027, and plantedst 5193 them; how thou didst afflict 7489 the people 3816, and cast them out 7971.
3 For they got 3423 0 not the land 776 in possession 3423 by their own sword 2719, neither did their own arm 2220 save 3467 them: but thy right hand 3225, and thine arm 2220, and the light 216 of thy countenance 6440, because thou hadst a favour 7521 unto them.
4 Thou art my King 4428, O God 430: command 6680 deliverances 3444 for Jacob 3290.
5 Through thee will we push down 5055 our enemies 6862: through thy name 8034 will we tread them under 947 that rise up 6965 against us.
6 For I will not trust 982 in my bow 7198, neither shall my sword 2719 save 3467 me.
7 But thou hast saved 3467 us from our enemies 6862, and hast put them to shame 954 that hated 8130 us.
8 In God 430 we boast 1984 all the day 3117 long, and praise 3034 thy name 8034 for ever 5769. Selah 5542.
9 But 637 thou hast cast off 2186, and put us to shame 3637; and goest not forth 3318 with our armies 6635.
10 Thou makest us to turn 7725 back 268 from the enemy 6862: and they which hate 8130 us spoil 8154 for themselves.
11 Thou hast given 5414 us like sheep 6629 appointed for meat 3978; and hast scattered 2219 us among the heathen 1471.
12 Thou sellest 4376 thy people 5971 for nought 1952, and dost not increase 7235 thy wealth by their price 4242.
13 Thou makest 7760 us a reproach 2781 to our neighbours 7934, a scorn 3933 and a derision 7047 to them that are round about 5439 us.
14 Thou makest 7760 us a byword 4912 among the heathen 1471, a shaking 4493 of the head 7218 among the people 3816.
15 My confusion 3639 is continually 3117 before me, and the shame 1322 of my face 6440 hath covered 3680 me,
16 For the voice 6963 of him that reproacheth 2778 and blasphemeth 1442; by reason 6440 of the enemy 341 and avenger 5358.
17 All this is come 935 upon us; yet have we not forgotten 7911 thee, neither have we dealt falsely 8266 in thy covenant 1285.
18 Our heart 3820 is not turned 5472 back 268, neither have our steps 838 declined 5186 from thy way 734;
19 Though thou hast sore broken 1794 us in the place 4725 of dragons 8577, and covered 3680 us with the shadow of death 6757.
20 If we have forgotten 7911 the name 8034 of our God 430, or stretched out 6566 our hands 3709 to a strange 2114 god 410;
21 Shall not God 430 search this out 2713? for he knoweth 3045 the secrets 8587 of the heart 3820.
22 Yea, for thy sake are we killed 2026 all the day 3117 long; we are counted 2803 as sheep 6629 for the slaughter 2878.
23 Awake 5782, why sleepest 3462 thou, O Lord 136? arise 6974, cast us not off 2186 for ever 5331.
24 Wherefore hidest 5641 thou thy face 6440, and forgettest 7911 our affliction 6040 and our oppression 3906?
25 For our soul 5315 is bowed down 7743 to the dust 6083: our belly 990 cleaveth 1692 unto the earth 776.
26 Arise 6965 for our help 5833, and redeem 6299 us for thy mercies 2617' sake.
